King Ning's eyes showed approval and appreciation as soon as she spoke. Although Ning Wang said that wangfei was pregnant, no one knew whether wangfei was really pregnant or just faking it to fool the crowd. Moreover, this matter was of great importance, so he had to be on his guard. Fortunately, wangfei's reaction was quick and quick, pushing her out in one go. Truly brilliant!
"You're right, Sister has a body, you should take better care of yourself." Then she glanced at Shang Yiqing. "Princess Consort Rong's medical skills are superb. Even the empress's body was treated by her. Elder sister really should have let esteemed wangfei have a good look."
This time, even Shang Guiqing could hear the meaning behind her words. The two wangfei were obviously congratulating Princess Ning, but secretly wanted her to confirm this matter in front of everyone to prevent a scam. Should she go into this mess or not? If he went up to take a pulse, he would offend Princess Ning. But if he didn't, he would offend both Crown Princess Dingdong and Princess Xuan – what should he do? She had always been a straightforward person and liked to do things her own way. It was a pity that she was in such a situation. Even if she wanted to stay out of it, it would be difficult to get her own way!
Just as she was thinking of how to deal with the princesses, she suddenly felt someone gently press her left hand. It turned out that Fang Zinan was gently holding her hand, giving her a look before writing a few words in her heart. Shang Yiqing felt relieved upon hearing this and walked up to Princess Ning. "If sister doesn't mind, then let sister take a look at your pulse so that you can prescribe a prescription to recuperate."
Princess Ning frowned and then arrogantly raised her chin. "That's good. I trust my little sister's medical skills. That way, others won't be suspicious of her." "The last few words, though spoken very softly, were very clear, and clearly meant that Princess Hua-Yang and Princess Xuan had heard them.
Prince Yu was far away, so he couldn't hear the words clearly. However, when he heard Shang Yiqing speak, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Fine, since Imperial Concubine Rong agreed to take Princess Ning's pulse, then even the Empress believes in her medical skills. She'll definitely be able to treat Princess Ning properly."
Princess Ning lowered her head and said, "Many thanks for Prince Yu's concern. Your consort will go down first and have Princess Rong take my pulse."
"Mm, you have to take good care of yourself and help our royal family expand its branches and scatter its leaves." Prince Yu still had a smile on his face, but he truly did care.
"Chenqie will leave." Princess Ning and Shang Yiqing withdrew from the main hall to the side chamber as they spoke. Both Crown Prince Ding and Princess Xuan followed after them.
"Elder sister, just lie still and let your younger sister take the lead." Shang Yiqing arranged for Princess Ning to be reclining on the small bed before starting to work on her pulse.
Although Crown Princess Dingdong and Princess Xuan were anxious, they both concealed their nervousness as they looked at Shang Yiqing's pulse without moving.
The meridians were smooth and connected fluently, just like a plate or a pearl. There was no doubt that it was a happy meridian. Shang Yiqing smiled and returned Ning Xiaoyao's wrist. Then she nodded and said, "Elder sister, don't worry. The baby is very well, and sister's health is also very good. "Little sister will give you a prescription to recuperate."
Upon hearing Shang Yiqing's words, Princess Ning'er got someone to help her sit up. She lifted her head slightly and looked at the two women's faces. She smiled proudly and said, "It's been hard on your little sisters. I'm just pregnant. I'm afraid I've become fatter after eating the tonic. I'm afraid my little sisters will laugh at me."
"Sister, how can you say that? We can't even be happy for sister, how can you laugh at us?" The two wangfei spoke in unison.
Ning Xiaoyao smiled in embarrassment. "True, none of my sisters have ever gotten pregnant. How do you know how I feel?"
These words didn't matter to Shang Yiqing, but the two of them blushed and paled when they heard it. It was really awkward!
Shang Yiqing had someone spread out a piece of paper and quickly wrote a prescription for Ning Wangfei, telling her, "Sister will follow this recipe and take good care of herself. When the time comes, mother and son will be healthy and well."
"I've troubled my sister." Ning Xiaoyao stood up and turned back to smile at the trio. "I'm going to tell my father about this good news right now." As he spoke, he ignored the others and left the side hall.
Seeing that Princess Ning had left, Ning Xiaoyao cast a resentful glance at him. "I really didn't expect that Princess Ning would really be pregnant this time. How infuriating!"
"Alas, who told us to let our own stomachs fail?" Princess Xuan sighed as well.
Shang Yiqing saw that they were talking about it and wanted to leave, but was afraid that they would say something more unpleasant, so she stood there without replying.
She suddenly turned her head and asked, "Princess Rong, is Princess Ning really pregnant?" Are you sure? "
"I have studied medicine for many years, how could I not even see the pulse?"
Crown Concubine Ning and Princess Xuan had suspected that Ning Xiaoyao was faking her pregnancy, but they hadn't thought that Shang Yiqing would find out that she was actually pregnant. The two felt quite depressed. Especially Princess Xuan, she had made a ruckus with Shang Yiqing over Ying Ying's matter. Now, with a cold expression, she sneered at Shang Yiqing, "I wonder if Princess Rong will ever find out that she's pregnant, or if she's lying to us along with Princess Ning?"
Shang Yiqing was infuriated upon hearing this and took a step forward. "Is she really pregnant? You can tell as long as you have a blood vessel. If wangfei Xuan doesn't believe you, you can get a doctor to examine her and see if I'm lying."
"Even so, your Shang family has always held important positions in the Imperial Palace's Grand Hospital. Even if you were to find another Imperial Physician, I'm afraid the result would be the same."
Shang Qing had never thought that such a gentle person like Princess Xuan would actually turn merciless towards her because of Ying Ying. He was now targeting her at every turn, treating her like an enemy. She was clearly pregnant, but when the words came out of her mouth, it actually seemed like she was colluding with her. She was so angry that her eyes were blazing. She held it in her chest, so stifled that she wanted to flip the table.
Although Crown Princess Dingdong didn't know why she said so, she went up to explain with good intentions, "Princess Xuan's words are serious! Back then when King Ning was plotting to assassinate the Emperor, if Prince Rong hadn't arrived in time and ruined Ning Wang's plans, we probably wouldn't have been able to keep our lives. "King Ding must hate Princess Rong to the core. How could Princess Rong have mixed feelings with him?"
"Even if that's the case, no one can guarantee that there's a conspiracy behind it?"
Shang Yiqing turned around when she heard this, "I can't help it if you don't believe me. If you don't believe me, you can look for a doctor to give Princess Ning's account. Why do you have to make things difficult for me? I'm just telling the truth. "
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go see Royal Father first." As Crown Princess Dingdong spoke, she pulled Princess Xuan away, not forgetting to glare fiercely at Shang Yiqing before she left.
